Parish History[edit | edit source]
Trimdon St Mary was created in 1755 from chapelry in Kelloe Ancient Parish. With the development of the colliery village of Trimdon a second church was established in 1874:
"The Church, dedicated to St. Paul, situated in Trimdon Colliery, is a plain brick structure, with stone facings, in the Early English style, consisting of nave only. It was built by subscription, at a cost of £1200, two acres of land being given by the Wilkinson family. The interior fittings are of pitch pine, and will seat 200 persons. This church was built for the ecclesiastical district of Deaf Hill cum Langdale, which was formed chiefly out of Trimdon parish."
[From History, Topography and Directory of Durham, Whellan , London, 1894]
